“This was a talented brother who cared about the community and did a lot [for it],” Master P told the publication. “This man was a star. His legacy is going to change so many lives.”

Since Nipsey’s death, Master P has made it clear that he's appreciative of all the love the late rapper is getting from his fans, even if he wishes that Nip would have received his praises when he was alive.

“Everything he got after he died, he deserved that before,” P told People. “He could really make music. People know now. His music touches millions of people now. I had people say, ‘You know, I never listened to his music. It’s really good’. But you waited ‘til he died? It makes no sense.”
